and finally;

Stewards and Sniffer dogs were searching in the stands just after the second half of the Arsenal vs Manchester United game last night.

Reports from Arsenal officials stated that they were looking for Arsenal's midfield.

They just did!

I know I know...I completely called it! :pimp:

One shot all night!!!

John Terry in tears again. :laughing:

Just like making a baby- you only need one shot on target :laughing:

Always a good sight to see. There will be "controversy" over the match, given all the 'no calls' in the area... and I would feel "bad" for them, but, come on, it's the ****ing Blues.

Criminal. I like Barca much more than Chelsea but they didn't deserve to pass through tonight. Shame...

Often I would find Chelsea getting robbed rather amusing, and I don't mind admitting that, but that was completely ridiculous. You get used to seeing ref's getting big calls wrong but 4 or 5 of them when they are that blatant?

I've got a couple of Chelsea fans for friends, it was amusing seeing their reactions to that goal. But the ref was outrageously bad and Chelsea have every right to feel aggrieved. Scandalous.

Drogba's theatricals gave me a good chuckle.

Ok I've been watching the matches and they've been great, but do any of you that follow more closely agree with the rule of Barc moving on because of the whole aggregate goal stuff. To me, that is just plain ridiculous, and a rule like that would never stand in America. Settle it on the field, not with some statistic mumbo jumbo.

Statistic mumbo jumbo?

Remember though mate that Chelsea did have the same benefit for the first match at Barce so it is fair.

I have no problem with the away goal as a way of separating teams in the event of a draw in European matches, its not even that complicated either, its not like it was a surprise to Chelsea they went out on the away goals rule, they ran that risk after not scoring in the first match.

We also bloody hate penalties as well.

I think it's a fair rule. As has just been stated European games are played over two legs so both teams have the opportunity to both play a leg infront of their own fans with the home advantage and to get an away goal. It's a much better way to decide a winner if the match is drawn than a penalty shoot out.

The away goal rule's pretty fair to be honest. A lot better than penalties, as a few of us have already mentioned. It also makes the games that little bit more exciting to watch, knowing like Chelsea fans did last night that one Barca goal would completely f*ck their campaign up (as, of course, it did).

To be fair if it was in America it would probably get settled with a multi-ball or something.

What's a multi-ball?

Can you name the clubs in the Premier League since its inception? - sporcle

Let's see how good you are

I got 42/42 with 1.38 minutes left

BBC SPORT | Football | Premier League | West Brom 3-1 Wigan

Bunch of useless wankers :mad:

42/42 with 3.07 minutes left here.

The same for Villa mate and it looks like Barry is going to :(

Similar scoreline for us last week Bulldog, I know how you feel. I'll be watching Boro and Newcastle on Monday now and crossing my fingers for a draw.

I know that feeling - Valencia's probably leaving this summer as well. I hate football sometimes :(

Your lot are safe I reckon. One more win and you're safe, and I think Sunderland are capable of getting it before the end of the season. Hull on the other hand are having a horrific run-in - if anyone else is in any real danger of going down, it's them.

Id say Boro have the worst run in but 3 points on Monday is do-able and would help them a lot. That one could go either way really.

I reckon we'll be OK too cause even though we have Chelsea last, Hull have Man United, Newcastle have Villa and Boro have West Ham. West Brom could well beat Blackburn in the last game but they have Liverpool before that.

If Boro and Newcastle draw then we need to beat Portsmouth to avoid takin it to the last day of the season.

To be honest its arguable that our last 2 games arent as important to us staying up as Villa's are as their last two games are Boro and Newcastle. Villa could actually keep us up.

I wish I had Setanta i'd love to watch tonights Newcastle v Boro match.

I'm mixed who I want to go down, had you asked me at the start of the season I would have loved Boro to go down, they've been in the premiership for years & done nothing of any interest, let someone else have a go. But on the other hand if the Geordies go down I won't stop laughing till Xmas. I wouldn't have had so much fun since Leeds went down.

Shame Stoke are staying up, looks like they get to bore us to death for another 38 games.

I miss Setanta :(

Im off to the pub to watch it in a little bit. I'd much prefer the Geordies to go down but ideally they will draw, contribute towards our safety and both be in the Championship next season.

man utd win again!

league over for sure now.

BBC SPORT | Football | Premier League | Wigan 1-2 Man Utd

We gave them a proper run for their money with our best performance in months. I'm satisfied.

yeah, Wigan were unlucky mate.

You certainly did. Especially the first half. Closed United down quickly and took the game to us.

No they weren't!
After taking the game to United, Wigan shut up shop and tried to consolidate and protect what they had...suicide.
Again...the only way to play United is to attack. United probably have the most experienced players in the world in dealing with teams that choose the defensive option.
When I see a team prepared to attack United from the off I pray to God they score early. Gives us so much more time to reverse the scoreline.

It's the definition of asking for trouble when a team tries to defend a 1 goal lead - it just invites an equaliser and then a complete collapse, and I still don't know why the hell teams do it as it never bloody works (after years of watching Sven's England it's something you get used to though).

Anyway, congratulations on another title. It'll take just about the most unlikely turn of events in the next weeks to stop your lot now.

Yep. 1 point from the last 2 games to be precise, but it's not over yet.
Arsenal are a potential banana skin, but Hull should be a banker. :D

18 Titles........and thats a fact :thumb:

Congrats to the red scum. Another predicatable season again and with the news of Laursen's retirement and Barry probably going we probabaly wont challenge next year either.

Will Tevez and Ronaldo stay though I wonder?

I'd love Tevez to stay, but if United can't blag his agent to lower the asking fee, I'd let him go.
For all his commitment £30 million is too much for a player like Tevez.
I'd rather buy a more prolific scorer for that kind of money.

As for Ronaldo...if he leaves for Madrid in the summer, then he's even a bigger pillock than I already gave him credit for.
Let's see...World and European player of the year. English player and top scorer of the year. English championship medal 3 years running. World club winners medal and the possibility of adding a second consecutive European Champions League winners medal in Rome within the next 10 days.
Why on earth would he want to leave and play for a bobbins, second rate football team like GetReal Madrid!?

Because he has a collosal ego unfortunately. I genuinely say to sell him if you can get them to pay 70 mill. You are still very strong with what you have.

As for Tevez. It must just be the asking price and you can tell it's that greedy bastard agent angling for as much cash as possible for his backburner. 30 mill is a little too high.

But then again you could put it the other way around & say there's nothing left for him to achieve with Man Utd having done pretty much everything. The only thing left for you to do after all that is do it again with the team you've always wanted to play for.

He's still young with the world at his feet. Plenty of time to do that.
He gets frustrated playing for United...imagine what he's going to be like in a team full of overpaid premadonnas.
I actually agree with Lee. Better for him to go, if that's what the boy wants.
He could do with a dose of bringing back down to earth.
Trouble is, unlike Lee says...I think we'd miss him.

Get rid of him then Rooney can kick the crap out of him at the world cup next year!
